Chapter 95 Be Surrounded by Reporters
Summer read the comment again.
Thanks to the battle with Vicky in recent months, the more she looked at those comments, the more she felt that someone deliberately stirred thing up. There were even some paid internet trolls.
Summer thought of Jessica.
She sent the screenshot of these comments to Jessica and asked, “Did you send these comments? Did you even hire online supporters?”Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.
Jessica replied, “Holy shit! You can even tell? Honestly, did you install something strange on my phone?”
Summer laughed out loud and simply replied, “Just my intuition.”
Jessica said, “Your intuition is magical! If you want to find someone to expose the Jarrett Group, why didn’t you bring me along? I can help you find the online supporters to stir it up.”
Jessica’s troublemaking personality had never changed.
“Don’t get involved. I can handle it. You’re a public figure. Be careful of being framed.” Summer was really worried about Jessica. If someone deliberately wanted to frame her, it would be the dirt for her.
“It’s fine. I won’t be taken out. I’ve done it secretly. Let’s not talk about it anymore. I’m going to use another login ID to Weibo, a social media, to come along for the ride. Let’s have dinner and celebrate tonight.”
“Celebrate?”
Summer smiled helplessly and exit from the chat interface.
A colleague at the side said to Summer, “Summer, the department is having a meeting. Why are you still here?”
“I’ll be there soon.”
Summer put her phone into her pocket and slowly followed behind the crowd to the meeting room.
The person who organized the meeting was not Vicky, but the deputy manager.
The deputy manager said with a serious expression, “Everyone contact the project partners you are responsible for and appease them first. Those who want to dissolve the cooperation, please find a way and hurry up…”
Summer carelessly listened as she fiddled with her hair.
When the scandal of the Jarrett Group’s factory was exposed, the image of the company plummets in public, just like the company producing milk powder. It was exposed to make milk powder that hurt babies’ health. The punishments of the Jarrett Group would range from being seriously injured to bankruptcy.
What the Jarrett Group produced was daily necessities, not food. As long as their public relations capabilities were good, they wouldn’t go bankrupt, but they would definitely be seriously injured.
In the era of rapid development, in order to pursue fame and fortune, some people would be unscrupulous and impetuous. And there were just a few dependable people.
Summer’s move was a bit ruthless, but if there was no problem with the factory, then could the paparazzi get something?
After the emergency meeting, it was already past work time, but almost everyone had to stay and work overtime.
Summer did not intend to stay. She picked up her bag and left. She turned around to walk towards Lynn’s office when she was about to reach the elevator.
Coincidentally, the office door was half-closed.
Vicky’s angry voice came from inside.
“How much benefit do we give the media every year? That’s how they do things. Dad, what should we do? Will the Jarrett Group go bankrupt?”
Hearing the word “bankrupt”, Lynn shouted, “Shut up! I told you to behave yourself and keep a low profile when you go out. Now that someone has caught hold of the company and made a big fuss about your matters. Someone is deliberately trying to make trouble for the company!”
“How did I know that someone would take photos and videos? I was just thinking about playing and having some fun, and you didn’t care about me at that time. Didn’t you look for women outside yourself? Last time, I saw you hugging a woman younger than me and entering the hotel…”
Vicky was probably too anxious, and she was scolded by Lynn. Therefore, she felt unbalanced in her mind and said something wrong.
With the sound of clapping, Vicky’s voice abruptly stopped.
Summer gently pushed the door and saw Vicky covering her face. Then, she shrieked, “You hit me?”
Lynn seemed to regret it, and his tone softened a lot, “Vicky…”
Vicky took a step back and said, “Don’t call me!”
After she finished speaking, she turned around and ran outside.
Seeing this, Summer turned around and hurriedly left.
When she was about to reach the door, she remembered the media went directly to the company’s entrance to block people last time. She took out her mask from her bag and put it on.
In winter, she had the habit of keeping masks in her bag. She didn’t expect that they would come in handy at such a time.
As soon as Summer went out, she was surrounded by reporters.
“May I ask if you are an employee of the Jarrett Group? What is your position in the company? Do you know about the scandal of the company’s factory?”
“Sorry, I’m not at liberty to say.” After Summer finished speaking, she inadvertently turned around and saw Vicky walk out of the room.
Summer thought for a moment and said, “Our department manager should be able to answer your questions.”
The reporters followed Summer’ gaze and saw Vicky.
Summer was slim and her eyes were very beautiful. But her clothes were very plain. And she did not look like a manager at all.
The clothes Vicky wore were very famous. They had appeared at Fashion Week, and some famous stars also wore them. With such expensive clothes, one could tell that her position in the company was not low.
The reporters were very slick, and they directly ran over to block Vicky.
Summer did not go far. She retreated to an inconspicuous corner and watched Vicky being surrounded by those reporters.
“May I ask what your position is in the Jarrett Group? Do you have anything to say about the dirt on the company’s factory? When do you plan to give the public an explanation?”
At the beginning, everyone was still talking about the factory.
One of them suddenly recognized Vicky was the heroine of the indecent video, and then the questions changed.
“May I ask if you are the heroine of the indecent video on Weibo?”
“Your private life is so chaotic. Can you still be the manager?” The reporter who asked this question clearly did not know that Vicky was Lynn’s daughter.
After all, these were not entertainment reporters. They only knew about that matter and did not pay too much attention to it.
There were other quick-witted reporters who searched the Internet for the previous video incident.
Then, a reporter started broadcasting directly at the company’s entrance.
“Hello everyone, I am a reporter at the entrance of the Jarrett Group, and the lady standing behind me who was surrounded by reporters is a middle manager of the company. It is said that this manager was involved in an indecent video scandal a while ago. For such a…”
Before the reporter could finish speaking, Vicky rushed over and turned on the microphone in that reporter’s hand.
“What nonsense are you talking about? Can’t you report the truth seriously? How can you report such nonsense?” Vicky said with a ferocious expression.
The other reporters took photos on Vicky fiercely.
The flash was dazzling. Vicky raised her hand to cover her face and snarled, “Stop photographing. I told you to stop that. Where is the security guard? Help! Get rid of them all!”
The reporter who was knocked off the microphone by Vicky picked it up again and found it was still useful. She continued to broadcast excitedly, “The person who knocked off my microphone just now was the manager of the Jarrett Group. I just found out that she is the daughter of the chairman of the company and her name is Vicky…”
